Filmmaking has come a long way in the last century. From Thomas Edison and the Lumiere's brothers first efforts to the golden years of the silent screen. From the first talkies to the glamour days of the 30's and 40's, the International Motion Picture Almanac has covered the studios that have defined the industry worldwide. While names like RKO, Allied Artists and Cinerama have passed into history, studios like MGM, Warner Brothers, Paramount and 20th Century Fox have endured.

We continue to cover the major studios in detail, listing all the executives, divisions and branches worldwide. And with independent pictures making news and winning awards, we also report on the smaller companies destined to be tomorrow's giants.

Here's a small part of our listing for Sony Pictures Entertainment. Check out the International Motion Picture Almanac for complete executive rosters, divisions and branch offices.
